Quite full in CW: J/9 C/7 D/0 R/0
So my view:
- Unlikely to see further CW redemptions open on this flight
- Unlikely at short notice that WT will fill so much that it would trigger OpUps into WT+ (and pushing you to CW in the process). And for that you would have to be a Gold probably.
- Your best option is to buy the upgrade at the airport.
That said, it is only a 7h flight, perfectly bearable in WT+ and as long as your outbound is in CW, I would not spoil my anniversary trip by constantly checking for upgrade availability by the pool! Then make the decision on the spur of the moment once you reach the airport...
